5 miles CTE: 40min bike at the Y. 13.1M. HR around 160, mostly 105-110rpm @ 9 resistance. Funny, when I biked the same pace 3 weeks ago, HR was only 140. However, my legs felt very fresh today. The good thing about being out of shape is that you can get a good workout without pounding your legs.
Have taken 3.5 weeks completely off as an "off season" to let my body recover, especially my Achilles. I want to get my Achilles completely better before I run again, so I'll probably continue to just cross train for several more weeks.
Also did lower-body circuit including eccentric calf raises.
